Abstract: Tube torsion refers to a gynecological acute abdominal disease, in which the fallopian tube rotates on its own axis, without ipsilateral ovarian torsion. The incidence is very low, only 1/1 500 000. Clinical symptoms are not typical, easy to cause misdiagnosis. Tube torsion during pregnancy is even rarer, accounting for 12% of all cases of tubal torsion. Due to the lack of specific examination methods, the diagnoses are often delayed, even resulting in peritonitis and thereby endangering the life of the mother and baby. A case of pregnancy complicated with tubal torsion in our hospital was reported as follows, with a review of literatures, in order to explore the clinical characteristics and treatment methods of this rare and complex disease, so as to improve our ability of diagnosis and treatment.
